Marble, Bronze, Mosaic
The classes went to Pietrasanta where there is a small company called Barsanti. They create art pieces made of
- Marble -- they use chisels and other tools to create statues, both classic and modern
- Bronze -- they create molds for casting molten bronze. For the big pieces they then weld the cast pieces together to make the final piece of art
- Mosaic -- they create murals for walls made out of pieces of colored glass and marble
Pretty cool - here are the pictures. We stopped for lunch at a nearby beach, and it was a really nice day (although I am tired now).
